“Jay Severin, the fiery right wing talk show host on Boston’s WTKK-FM radio station, was suspended yesterday after calling Mexican immigrants “criminaliens,” “primitives,” “leeches,” and exporters of “women with mustaches and VD,” among other incendiary comments.”

There’s no bigger opponent of illegal immigration than yours truly, but I think Severin’s comments were stupid and insulting. Let’s leave the depersonalization to the idiots on the Left and offer reasoned arguments why open borders are damaging to our economy, our health, and our sovereignty.

If this is the most “incendiary” thing this guy said — then he’s the victim of selective censorship. Sounds to me like a BOSTON station wants to stay on the good side of “Mein Fuhrer Obama...”

Jay should immediately look for another gig — but NOT in enemy territory.

"Any time I catch him on the radio, it's aggravating, insulting, and disgusting," she said. "I just can't listen to him. He doesn't just show a lack of respect...

So....DON'T LISTEN! Sheesh, just turn the knob and get on with your life, Marcela.

Liberals only believe in “free speech” when it applies them. Words we find offensive are just fine with them - words they find offensive are cause for being fired or jailed.

I live in MA and have been listening to Jay Severin for years.

His comments that are supposedly the reason for his suspension are neither unusual or even particularly offensive.

He's been using the term "criminaliens" for years. Simply a contraction of "criminal aliens" and is a merely a statement of fact.

His other comment was calling hospital ERs "condos for Mexicans", and this was said in the context of a call with an ER nurse. Anyone who listens to his show would know that he's not a racist or a xenophobe; he's just opposed to illegal aliens coming here to suck on our wallets and clog our health care system.

This is nothing less than the PC Thought Police entering the active phase of their clampdown. Jay is one of the very few voices of dissent in the Boston area, and a very popular one at that. Of course they desperately want to silence him.

Well it was written by dead white slave owners.

I’m with you; but I’ve been chewed out a lot lately for advocating thinking and measuring a little more carefully before jumping onto fairly extreme verbiage. It’s frustrating [making and remaking elements of the Conservative case] against a (liberal) background of being able to argue that any word means anything “I” want it to. But I agree with you; lately what’s getting my goat is the steady and deliberate bifurcation of word meanings everywhere.

Investment
Marriage
Diversity
Tolerance
etc; etc; etc;

Which is not directly relevant to your post, except to the extent that participating in arguments where libs draw the boundaries is surrendering a fair amount of ground. If you get my drift, and it is a drift.

Shameful.

He got suspended for telling the truth all the while the MSM distorts and buries the truth with impunity.

It really sucks when you get suspended for telling the straight facts.
